.300 WBY MAG.

Its plenty for elk and bear, you should have no problems. It will easily kill a deer but the reason PaJack says you might be a little overgunned is they have tendancy to ruin a lot meat if you hit a bone structure. Just a lot of shock for deer sized game. But you hit em right and you won' t have any problems.

The 300 wby is an excellent moose and elk cartridge.The only reason I sold mine was that the weatherby rifle didn' t provide the accuracy I demanded.However now that I own two 300 ultramags I prefer this cartridge over the 300 wby as it produces more velocity at equal pressures.

.300 Weatherby is most certainly adequate for anything in North America. I wouldn' t trade mine (Rem 700 Classic) for anything. I do handload for it, so I tone it down some for use on whitetails.
